A Nation Of Potheads - Just Plain Crazy

It is bad enough that millions of Americans are alcoholics with all the family damage that is causes.  And, that millions more are addicted to various types of narcotics some prescribed by doctors.  Even with all the problems caused by alcohol and hard drugs, in the last ten years there has been a push to legalize marijuana for "recreational use" so much so that we are becoming a nation of Potheads.  For people under the age of 18, Pot has become the intoxicant of choice bypassing liquor.  This is just plain crazy. 

Pot is addictive.  It is a gateway drug that leads to more powerful drugs to get high.  Studies show that prolonged use of Pot destroys brain cells. Politicians of both political parties, but in particular the Socialist Fascist (AKA Democrat) Party support federal legalization of Pot.  They do this to please their young voters, presumably to end incarceration for Pot related charges that penalize people of color in our inner cities most and to create another huge source of tax revenues for federal, state and local governments.  Clearly, liquor and cigarettes have among the highest taxes on any products sold in America.  Pot will be next.  

Oddly, everybody agrees that cigarette smoke causes cancer.  Where are the studies related to the impact of Pot smoke on the lungs.  It can't be good.  Of course, since Pot in now made into gummy candies, along with cookies and other eatable products at least Pot use can occur without smoke entering the lungs; though it still can't be good for the liver or kidneys.  Further, many of the implications to creating a nation of Potheads have not been considered related to impact on the workplace, now that so many people are working from home and our roadways.   We have a measure related to driving drunk.  What is the measure related to driving under the influence of Pot.  

We are slowly watching the demise of the United States.  A dumbed down population resulting from  drug addiction and failing public schools produces a docile people that can be controlled by Socialist Fascist politicians, which is the real goal.  What Old Abe Lincoln used to say, that "you can fool some of the people some of the time; but you can't fool all of the people all of the time" is just not true.  You can fool all of the dumbed down people all of the time.  That is where we are headed in a nation of Potheads that are oblivious to the freedoms we are losing and the coming bankrupcy of the United States.
